The Lost Children

This is yet another I did last week. I wanted to portray the feeling of dispair,and the hardship faced by so many of our nations poor. I used a tecnique I had never tried before with this one. I wanted a dingy look without a lot of detail, I aldo wanted the black to be as dark as possible. What I used for this was Derwent-Sketching pencils, HB,2B,&6B. I then went over the the pencil with a water brush. This alowed me to get a dirty look to the drawing, and reduce some of the detail. Being that it was the first time Itried this I didnt get where I wanted it but I enjoyed doing it and will definately try this again. I would love to hear back from someone who has used this method before, and humbly ask for some tips and advise Thanks Rick
